CONFEDERATE  STATES. 


Yankees  may  sing  of  their  rank  pork  and  beans, 
Their  dollars  and  cents  are  hut  fabulous  dreams. 

They  ne'er  sang  a  line, 

Half  so  grand — bo  divine, 

As  the  glorious  blast 

;We  Confederates  boast — 
'The  Confederate  States  and  Liberty  forever!" 

I>  \  VIS!  (lie  man  of  our  choice,  guides  the  helm, 
No  tempest  can  harm  us,  do  North  overwhelm, 

( >ur  sheet  anchor  's  sure, 

And  our  hark  rides  secjire, 

So  here  's  to  the  toast 

We  ( lonfederates  boast — 
-The  Confederate  States  and  DAVIS  forev<  p." 

A  free  navigation,  commerce  and  trade, 
We  seek  for  no  foi — of  ao  foe  be  afraid, 

( )ur  frigates  shall  ride — 

Our  defi  ace  and  our  pride, 

( hir  tars  guard  our  coast 

A  nd  huzza  to  our  toast — 
••The  Confederate  States  and  commerce  forever." 

Washington!    Marion — still  live  in  our  songs, 

Like  rhcni  our  young  heroes  shall  spurn  at  our  Hrrongs, 

The  world  shall  admire 

The  zeal  and  the  fire, 

Which  blaze  in  the  toast 

We  ( lonfedi  rates  boi  si  — 
"The  (Confederate  States  and  its  advocates  forever." 

Fame's  trumpet  shall  swell  in  Davis'  ]  i 

And  lime  grant  a  furlough  to  lengthen  his  days, 

May  health  weave  the  thread 

<  >i'  delight  round  his  head. 

No  nation  can  boast 

Such  a  uame — uch  a  toast — 

"The  Confed<  rfte  Sti*e>      id  it-  President  forever."
